Ruffin' It 15 Foot Heavy Duty Tie-Out Cable

Ruffin' It 15 Foot Heavy Duty Tie-Out CableThis one is very good. Heavy Duty for sure. Have bought the cheapest and the most expensive and they all are crap. This was a great price and it is thick and the coating on the cable seems thicker too. Definitely better than the others I have tried. great buy

Although the description of the item on the site clearly states this item is for dogs over 65 pounds, the product packaging reads "For dogs up to 65 lbs".

Ewww Enzymatic Cat Stain and Odor Remover Gallon

Ewww Enzymatic Cat Stain and Odor Remover GallonThe label on the bottle claims "permanently removes organic stains from urine, feces & other accidents." This is an understatement.

The product excels in cleaning stains. Best to sprang on and let it sit a bit then towel it off. Whatever you do, do not try a Bissell Spot-Bot on the stain after applying the ewww; it just smears the stain into a big circle.

I bought a 32 ounce bottle and a large refill. I tried to remove the top of the bottle and all I get is clicking noise and no twisting off. Looks like I will just use a store bought sprayer for the refill and throw the empty 32 ounce bottle away.

This product works great, I have already ordered it twice, the 2nd time, in the refill size, to save a little on cost

Gentle spray citronella refill pack of 2

Gentle spray citronella refill pack of 2This product keeps my dogs from boredom barking. If it's anxiety barking, or barking at someone who trespasses into our yard no they won't stop, it's just annoying enough that they won't do it just for kicks. This has considerably lessened the amount of barking my GSD and Doberman do.

I got squirted in the face/eyes with it, which I didn't enjoy but wasn't a big deal either so you can feel a lot safer about using this than painful methods like shock collars. It even came recommended by my dog trainer, who is a positive reinforcement only trainer. She won't continue to work with you if you use shock collars or pinch/choke. She believes these to be an acceptable method, and has the benefit of being consistent in a way that spraying them with water can't be.

This seller got me the replacements right away, and had a great price. I have nothing bad to say about it.

I have a 45 pound breed-unknown dog (looks like a small golden retriever) who is very barky. Any dog walking by our house leads to a long torrent of ear-splitting barking. The bark collar works great he wears it just a few hours a day and it has cut down on his barking a lot, even when he isn't wearing it. These refills are significantly cheaper than the chain pet stores sell them for. One tip when the can is close to empty, it doesn't fill the collar well. It seems like the can can't generate enough pressure to fill the collar and the squirt is very weak. I thought my dog had just gotten used to the collar and that it didn't work anymore, but once I switched to a new refill can it was back to high effectiveness.

Great stuff. My dog doesn't like it, but isn't freaked out either. He stops his bad behavior right away and usually I only have to use the sound tone on the collar control unit rather than the spray because the spray sends such an effective message to him.

Works very well for my crew of toy breed dogs. Once the collar is put on my lead announcer my house is quiet!

Want Gentle spray citronella refill pack of 2 Discount?

This is a good price for this product. I have the spray collar and it works very well. My dog hates the smell and taste of this stuff so it is a major deterent. He is learning fast not to bark on walks now. A couple of barks and a growl are all we get out of him on an hour walk which is a vast improvement. He was barking like a crazy dog before! Thanks to this I'm not embarrased to take him out with me. The shipping was fast and convenient.

Guardian Gear Chain Link Pet Lead Leash - Blue

Guardian Gear Chain Link Dog Lead, 4-Millimeter, BlueI have a one year old female Dane who would not stop biting the leash. She would put the nylon lead in her mouth and pull like tug of war when I was trying to walk her. It got to the point where I could not take her on walks because I could not hold her. I bought a chain lead (4 mm) and that solved my problems. She cannot bite the lead and therefore she behaves. She will still jump on me when she gets mad because she can't bite the lead (so that problem hasn't been solved yet), so I do need a no jump harness for her, but this lead definitely solved the leash biting problems.

Sunbeam Pets Advanced Bark Control Collar

Sunbeam Pets Advanced Bark Control CollarI have a 2.5 year old, 10.5 pound Bichon Frise/Coton de Tulear that I have had since she was 3 months old. She never grew out of "barking" phase when I would leave the house, regardless of what I did to acclimate her to my leaving, giving her toys, etc. She would bark 10-15 minutes after I'd leave, then be silent until I came home after work. This was okay when everyone else was out of the house, but not okay now, when my present roommie wakes up at noon for his swing shift and I leave at 7am.

I was hesitant to use a shock collar of any type, as my dog is fairly mellow and fun-loving. She is very sensitive to the slightest stern voice/reaction/anything. She grew up with love and no negative feelings (even when she did bad things). But.. after trying three different 'ultrasonic' devices and not having any luck with her barking, I finally decided to try this static collar.

I had my boyfriend test it--as I didn't want to cause harm to my dog. Unlike the other review, we did not get a shock when walking around with it around, or barking into it, etc. My bf tried holding it and barking into it--nothing. He tried putting it on his wrist and barking into it--nothing. Finally he had to touch the probes to his neck and "bark" to finally get a reaction. He said it was sort of a pinch, with the muscles contracting but not hurting.

Day one--she barked incessently, but higher pitched, almost as if she didn't care, but could feel it (with one or two yips in between). I think at some point the collar turned off, as if the dog overbarks it is meant to. I was sad that it may not work.

Day two--she barked twice, not as loud as usual, but short high pitched barks--I think it corrected her both times, and she was silent.

Day three--no more barking. When I came home, the battery was dead too. I don't know if its because I had left it on overnight for a few days after testing (not realizing until later how to properly "turn it off"), or if that was just the battery life for it.

I was able to continue the full following week with the collar on her (without working batteries)--and it was enough of a deterrent for her not to bark.

I tried today to leave her without it, and left her regular collar on--and she barked. So...

-The bark collar works. Even my dog that doesn't care about anything in the world, eventually got the picture. Could work for your dog too.

-My dog still needs to keep the bark collar on, to keep her from barking. She knows when its off, that she can "play bark." Otherwise, when I come home and she still has it on, she keeps fairly quiet because she "knows"--until I take it off. It works.

-The battery died after 3 days of use. Possibly extend this to a full week (if I did leave it on for 24-hour periods accidentally). This is the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

I found a place on Amazon selling Maxell CR2032 batteries (100 pack for $30) which isn't terrible. It's worth the lack of barking and reviews on it says it was working on their bark collar (no model listed) for 2 batteries per week (60 cents a week!). Let's hope I have the same luck. And in either case, if the collar works on its own on her, that's fine by me!

Would definitely recommend it for anyone that is looking for a dog bark collar and is unsure. Petsmart has a 60-day guarantee, so test it out (on yourself first too, if you'd like!)!

i bought the collar a couple months ago after i adopted my deaf pittie pup. i was in such a hurry to stop her barking from disturbing the neighbors i got the first thing i could. once i brought it home it was too big for her neck so i cut it down to size (1st mistake was buying the collar instead of sport dog which i know and trust, 2nd mistake was cutting it as it prevented me from taking it back!) at first it was ok, i was still figuring it out and she was getting use to it. for the most part it silenced quite a few daily bark sessions. then as time when on i realized i was spending more time replacing batteries and constantly turning it back on after about 10/15 minutes or so (gotta love sleep mode). She figured out the trend, of when i put the collar on her then don't bark right away, wait a little while then bark bc it'll turn off again and sometimes she even barks THROUGH the collar. i once seen it light up indicating its responding to her bark and she KEPT barking, blew my mind smh. now its just a frustrating waste of space, i dont even bother with batteries i put it on her and "act it out", that way i can at least get 10/15 minutes of silence. a spray bottle full of water has more effect on her and shes not even afraid of water

I have 2 dogs. The first day I put this on my 1st dog then if my 2nd dog barked loudly while playing the 1st dog(with the bark collar) gets shocked. I put this on my wrist and barked into it and it shocked me, so I went to the kitchen and banged pans together and it shocked me. It is supposed to only shock if it senses vibrations from the dogs neck and hears an audible bark at the same time.

The collar may work if you only have one dog and are in a controlled environment but every accidental shock when the dog is being good is a training set back. So I give it one star.

Also I purchased this from petsmart in the store, they accepted the return stating "with the receipt you have up to 60 days to return it".

Fresh'n Clean Ultra Absorbent Floor Protection Pads, 50-Pack

Fresh'n Clean Ultra Absorbent Floor Protection Pads, 50-PackI like these basic. absorbent, and my puppy's choice (Yorkie) among other puppy pads. I think they may be more absorbent than many others, though seem not as absorbent as ones I had left over from several years ago. Also, nice that they dont have an annoying perfumey scent

They do the job just fine but we found the top layer of the pad tended to bunch up a bit more than other pads which made it much more tempting for our puppy to chew and dig at.

Buy Fresh'n Clean Ultra Absorbent Floor Protection Pads, 50-Pack Now

If you have or are getting a puppy I strongly encourage you to buy and try this product! Even the odor in the pads helps your puppy to train right and find the correct spot when in need!

I myself was quite suspicious as to the pads actually working as splendidly as they were advertised. Imagine my surprise when we did try them and they were a hit!! Our pup is now 11 weeks old, and rarely misses the pads. And due to the quick dry surface and baking soda our home always has a clean smell! =D

Super cute, but the leash part/ribbon twists once it is out (because it is so thin);so it does not retract properly without extra effort.

PAPILLON DVD! Includes Dog & Puppy Training Video

PAPILLON DVD! Includes Dog & Puppy Training VideoIf you have read papillon books, there is no new info here. If you don't have time to read the DVD is OK. Used one adolescent puppy for demonstration purposes. I would have liked to see more adult dogs representing colors, standards, beauty, personality, sizes, breed uses (working in hospitals, service dogs, agility?) Training section helpful.

Maybe I expected too much from this DVD, but I found it to be just OK, not great.

It does contain some useful information and interesting facts, especially for the first time owner on the breed, but it could be so much more entertaining, considering that Papillon such fun high energy dog. It was a bit boring and incomplete.

Buy PAPILLON DVD! Includes Dog & Puppy Training Video Now

I would of enjoyed this video alot more if the irritating music did not play the entire time.

There were, however, alot of interesting facts, would of like to see more visuals on certain areas. And more visuals on other Papillons at different ages.

But the bonus training video was and exceptional deal almost makes up for the other dog movie that was nothing but dog playing in a park, no knowledge shared on that one.

All in all I was satisfied with my purchase and would recommend this video to anyone eager to learn more basic information about the papillon breed.

Midwest Wire Mesh Pet Gate, 29 Inches to 50 Inches wide x 44 Inches tall

Midwest Wire Mesh Pet Gate, 29 Inches to 50 Inches wide x 44 Inches tallThe gate is tall and works well in the standard door jam I am using it in. I use it for my crazy chocolate lab, and it works well. I was concerned she would jump over the typical 36" gates. The 44" height was the main reason I bought it. When I took it out of the box a few screws were loose, and one was even stripped. A little chintzy when it is standing free, but is quote solid when in-place. The total quality is somewhat lacking, but it gets the job done.

needed to separate new cat from rest of our pets and this combined with a 36" gate did the job

Buy Midwest Wire Mesh Pet Gate, 29 Inches to 50 Inches wide x 44 Inches tall Now

This gate did the job for almost two days before it broke.

We purchased this gate to keep the cat from roaming too much, and it seemed to be keeping him confined as hoped. I did notice the adjustment bar was a bit lightweight for the size of the gate and would flex a bit when the gate was secured. Well, it lasted for less than two days (probably 10-12 opening/closing cycles) before it snapped. At $20./day it's a bit too expensive for me!

This gate is exactly what I expected and more. It is perfect for my dogs that are able to leap tall buildings and climb over them. Before I found this gate I was resorted to putting up (2) baby gates one on top of the other, looked horrible, this gate is clean looking and perfect for me!

I would highly recommend this gate. I use it for my cat...anything lower she would be able to jump. The gate is very sturdy, well made. I got it at a lower price from Amazon...the only damage was to the box, and didn't affect the gate at all...a real bargain.

Red Dingo Reflective Martingale Dog Collar, Medium

Red Dingo Reflective Martingale Dog Collar, Medium, PurpleThis is the only type collar I will use for most herding dogs. Their head is often times smaller than their neck so this tightens up without chocking. It is usually hard to find in smaller sizes though

Great size, great concept of self tightening as the dog pulls on her leash. Good color and pall around look.

Buy Red Dingo Reflective Martingale Dog Collar, Medium Now

The only things that I can complain about is that this collar isn't quite reflective, the reflective material needs to a lot of light and in the correct angle to illuminate, and that isn't that easy to adjust to your dog's neck.

Puppy Bumper - Keep Your Determined Dog on the Safe Side of the Fence -Ultra Tropical Fantasy - 10-1

Puppy Bumper - Keep Your Determined Dog on the Safe Side of the Fence -Ultra Tropical Fantasy - 10-13'I wanted something more durable than the "regular" Puppy Bumper for my very active young dog. The "Ultra" Puppy Bumper costs a little more than the regular Puppy Bumper, but was well worth the extra price to me. The straps that hook onto the dog collar are made of a sturdy webbing type material and these are well sewn into the thick cotton bumper. My 10 lb dog is always chasing butterflies, flying leaves, bugs, frogs, and anything else that moves and he can easily slide or push his way through our wrought iron gate to get to them. I have absolutely no fear that this bumper will come apart on him. I never leave this guy out unsupervised, but now I can work in the yard and let him play without having him leashed or my constantly looking over my shoulder to see where he is. It looks like he is wearing a life preserver, but I guess that is what it is to me. He looks cute in the Tropical Fantasy design.

Something that could be an issue is the weight of the Ultra Puppy Bumper. It is made of a thick cotton material and may be heavy for really small dogs especially in hot humid climates like where I live. I plan on using it sparingly when my dog is outside only, not for long periods of time. He doesn't seem to mind wearing it, though. It was not yet available for Amazon Prime shipping when I purchased it on Amazon.com, but I would buy it from the merchant again.

Hagen Dogit 30-Pack Training Pads

Hagen Dogit 30-Pack Training Pads, Value BundleI was skeptical about buying this since it was only $4.91 on prime with the free cleaning solution. Since the pads themselves are advertised for $12.71, I thought this is too good to be true. I normally use the Hartz blue pads that are 21x21, and these are advertised as 22x22 but are actually, only 21x21 nonetheless, they were a great deal and very soft and good to use. I keep them under food dishes and litter boxes, and I line the inside of litter boxes with them under the bags and they work perfect. This was an insanely good deal, just as good as the Hartz (although not antibacterial, which is the only downfall), but 1/3 the price of Hartz. Comes with the solution, smells pretty goodnot perfect, but still worked wonders when I was washing the litter box. overall, I am buying a few more packs of these now while they are on sale and on prime!!

The pads do not absorb well and there is no adhesive to hold them down and

this makes for a messy situation

Kurgo Tru-Fit Enhanced Strength Car Harness for Dogs, With No-Pull Front Ring, XL Black

Kurgo Tru-Fit Enhanced Strength Car Harness for Dogs, With No-Pull Front Ring, XL BlackI have a very large Lab cross who is very strong and absolutely hates her feet messed with. My previous harness required me to pick her feet up and put them through the harness to get it on correctly. I love this harness, because we no longer have to struggle to get it on. The buckles are great (although a little time consuming until I get used to them), and it is sturdy. LOVE IT!

Arctic Paws 4-Ounce Salmon and Rice with Chicken Flavor Yummy Chummies

Arctic Paws 4-Ounce Salmon and Rice with Chicken Flavor Yummy ChummiesMy dog can not wait one second for her very special treat. The reaction is the same

at every treat time.

These treats seem really fresh and my dogs love them. They are fairly soft. Salmon is the first ingredient, which is great. Unfortunately, wheat flour is the second ingredient. That is the only reason I didn't give them a 5. They would be good as training treats if you rip/break them in half. Out of the bag, they are about the size of a chex cereal.

Buy Arctic Paws 4-Ounce Salmon and Rice with Chicken Flavor Yummy Chummies Now

This brand of salmon treats have a fairly strong smell. The scent helps keep your dog focused if their attention waivers, however the smell can also be a liability if your dog is so food motivated that it makes him/her crazy.

With wheat as the second ingredient (which dogs can't really digest), I wouldn't give these treat to my dogs. Look for something with meat as the first ingredient (not meal or by-product), and without rice, wheat, corn, flour, or sugar added.
